Tonto Dikeh
Fans of Tonto Dikeh, Nollywood actor, were on Sunday urged not to let her “miserable and failed love story” discourage them.
Tonto Dikeh made the plea in a short note via her Instagram handle on Sunday, saying the poor choices of others should not influence one’s own beliefs.
Describing her relationship matters as her “miserable and failed love story”, Dikeh further urged her over seven million fans not to give up on love.
Wrote she: “Don’t let my miserable failed love story or the failure of others’ love stories deter you from believing you can’t make it. Don’t let others’ poor choices determine your life/beliefs.
“That we fail doesn’t mean we are failures. We learn from each mistake and we keep on the fire. There are millions of beautiful love stories out there.
“It’s just that misery loves company hence you see only bad news in the world today! Love is a beautiful thing. Love is so sweet. And it’s truly a gift to one another.
“And love don’t hurt. If it does, it ain’t love. Don’t give up on love”.
Tonto Dikeh has had a particularly tumultuous experience with relationships.
In 2015, she got married to Olakunle Churchill, a businessman with whom she had a son, an affair that would later collapse as they parted ways in a development that degenerated into a well-publicised feud.
In 2021, her relationship with Joseph Egbri, her one-time partner, also ended in a protracted social media row.
